Jubilee 2025 parish resources

2025 is a holy year, when we join with Pope Francis and our global Catholic family in celebrating a Jubilee.

The Holy Father has given this year's Jubilee the theme of 'Pilgrims of Hope' and invited Catholics everywhere to renew our hope and discover a vision that can "restore access to the fruits of the earth to everyone".

Make a Jubilee pledge

Recommit to our global family ahead of the Jubilee year by pledging a transformative monthly gift, and you’ll receive our weekly gospel reflections by email.

Our weekly email reflections include reflections on the Sunday gospel, and ways in which you and the wider CAFOD family can give, act and pray with us during the Jubilee Year.

If you'd prefer, you can sign up for weekly reflections without pledging a monthly donation.

4 things you can do in your parish this Jubilee

1. Make a Jubilee pledge - Share our newsletter announcement and invite parishioners to make a monthly donation to share hope with communities around the world in the Year of Jubilee.

2. Discover the Jubilee icon - commissioned from a former student of a college supported by CAFOD, the icon is a gift for the Catholic community of England and Wales to celebrate the Jubilee. Share the icon with your parish by downloading our Jubilee poster.
